As Indiana shakes off winter’s chill and warmer days take hold, your trees and shrubs are beginning to wake from dormancy. This early spring window is critical for giving your landscape the support it needs to thrive through the growing season. At Brooklawn Services, we understand that a healthy landscape starts with smart seasonal care—especially for your ornamental trees and shrubs.
Whether you’re aiming for lush foliage, beautiful blooms, or long-term resilience, here’s what you should know about spring tree & shrub care in Indiana.
1. Fertilization: Recharging After Winter
After months of cold temperatures and dormancy, your trees and shrubs are ready to grow—but they need the right nutrients to do it. Spring fertilization helps:
- Promote vigorous new growth
- Strengthen root systems
- Support flower and leaf development
- Improve resistance to environmental stress
At Brooklawn, our spring and fall fertilization blends are customized to feed your landscape without overloading it. This balanced nutrition sets the stage for healthy, sustained growth all season long.
2. Deep-Root Feeding: Nourishment Where It Matters
Surface fertilizers can help, but they don’t always reach where trees and shrubs need it most. That’s why deep-root feeding is so important.
This technique injects nutrients directly into the root zone, encouraging deeper root growth and better nutrient uptake. It’s especially helpful in compacted soils—a common issue in many Indiana yards. By revitalizing your plants from the roots up, deep-root feeding improves drought tolerance, boosts plant health, and enhances the overall vigor of your landscape.
3. Spring Tree & Shrub Care: Preventing Pests and Diseases
As temperatures rise, so do pest and disease pressures. Aphids, mites, scale insects, and fungal issues are just a few of the early-season threats to trees and shrubs.
Preventive care is key. Our Tree & Shrub Program includes:
- Targeted inspections to identify early signs of trouble
- Timely applications of insect and disease controls
- Integrated strategies that promote natural resistance and reduce future outbreaks
By catching problems early and applying proactive treatments, we can stop serious damage before it starts.
